Dismissed by my gyno oncologist for recurring yeast infections and lump on vulva

I noticed a swelling near my throat. I honestly thought it was something wrong with my thyroid. Never occurred to me that the cancer was back. I made an appointment with my primary care provider who sent me for an ultrasound. That looked suspicious so I was referred to a surgeon who did a biopsy of the lymph node affected. If it hadn't been for that swelling on my neck, I'm not sure when I would have known. I've still never noticed the tumor in my abdomen.

Oh my. Yes pls do tell how did you know…

I'm sorry your doctor brushed you off. If you're really concerned, you may want to see a different doctor (primary or regular gyno). I bounced back from my hysterectomy fairly well and haven't had any trouble with that particular area since. Unfortunately, my cancer came back two years later and had metastasized to 2 other spots. I've been doing chemo for the past three years with good results.

I have uterine cancer and awaiting surgery. Stage 1A. How was surgery? I’m getting hysterectomy.
